3. Please explain.

4. Have you ever seen a mystic/psychic to be more in-touch with your past life/lives?

4a. Please share the results of this/these visit(s).

5. If you don't believe in reincarnation, please explain your stance.

1. Absolutely not.

That pretty much answers the rest of the poll.

I believe that the belief in reincarnation is similar to the belief in an afterlife, in that both are understandable attempts to grasp to any immortality that can't be disproven.I accept that this is the one and only sentient time I get, and that after I die is exactly like before I was born.

Nope. Can't say I'm worried or interested. I am living for now.

Not something I believe is real. The main reason I think that is that there is absolutely no evidence to suggest it's real. There's also the issue of how rapidly the number of people on earth is growing. Since there are so many more people now that there were a few generations ago that means, even if reincarnation were real, most people would not have had any previous human lives.

Reincarnation assumes that this is the only world. I believe that there are things beyond here we can't begin to comprehend. We'll essentially dimension hop, in death, for a time before we hit eternity.

Logical fallacy. If you can't disprove something then you can't claim to know that it isn't true. You can not believe in it, you can even claim to actively believe that it isn't true, but to claim to know that it isn't true crosses the line of logic. It's simply logically impossible to claim to know with 100% certainty that something that can't be disproven isn't true. 99.999% sure perhaps, but that last .001% is the difference between believing and knowing. So the four people who voted for the first option are wrong. Straight up. Option two is as far as you can go.

The burden of proof is on those purporting the theory, not the other way around.

Consider for a minute that perhaps not every living being has had a past life in order to harbor memories in their subconscious (and not every person alive, today, is a result of reincarnation) but once in a while it may happen.

I remember watching this cool video on youtube, some years back, about a well-constructed theory that there are at least 10 dimensions. (It's really hard to understand so you have to focus in order to sort of wrap your head around it.)

That goes back to my primary point, which is that there's no evidence of such a thing.

But if you're actively claiming something doesn't exist then you're the one purporting the theory. If all you're saying is that you don't believe something then you're not making any kind of claim, but claiming that something actually doesn't exist is a claim and you have to provide proof.

If I say I don't believe there is a unicorn living on a particular undiscovered island in the South Pacific then I don't have to prove that. I simply don't believe it. If I claim that it isn't there then I actually have to prove that the unicorn doesn't live there.
